Yup, just use cvsup to maintain an up to date copy of the repository
localy and then cvs checkout your source tree from there. This allows
you to keep in sync and keep local modifications in your tree. Updates
take longer and I recommend updating ports via direct cvsup instead of
via cvs checkout (it's much faster if you aren't modifying ports), but
it works quite well.
